We join Pope Francis and the Church in the Holy Land in a day of prayer and fasting for peace in the region. Jesus, Prince of Peace, pray for us.

After nearly 95 years of planning and building, Archbishop Thomas A. Boland, dedicated the Cathedral of the Sacred Heart on October 19, 1954. Today, it continues to be the center of faith for the people of the Archdiocese of Newark.  tinyurl.com/yp4u6a9s

On this day 69 years ago, the Cathedral Basilica of the Sacred Heart was dedicated & its doors were opened to the faithful. Since then, it has served this Archdiocese as a monument of faith & one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture in the world. Happy Dedication Day to our cathedral!

Let’s join with all who long for peace—especially in the Holy Land, Ukraine, and other war-torn regions of the world—in prayer, fasting, and acts of penance. Prince of Peace, hear our prayer.
